i.e. say there's 7 possible futures where the object gets close, and only 3 when it goes away

2019-10-28 09:23:32 UTC  

from what i've learned, you can pretty much just do an anova on any physics data and it gives you anything you need to know about the system. I'm not much of a modeler.

2019-10-28 09:23:35 UTC  

iterate this smoothly over time, you'll see an object fall smoothly towards energy

2019-10-28 09:24:02 UTC  

but to truly understand this, you have to blow apart your classical understanding of how time works,

2019-10-28 09:24:20 UTC  

get real confortable with spin statistics theorem of boson and fermions is a good start

2019-10-28 09:24:55 UTC  

yeah you can do anova

2019-10-28 09:25:06 UTC  

if you have enough data

2019-10-28 09:25:12 UTC  

its not as good as theory though

2019-10-28 09:25:21 UTC  

ill just stick to newtonian

2019-10-28 09:25:34 UTC  

i'm happy bending time. but i'm not so happy with ideas like cutting time in a place and reattaching it somewhere else. quantum physics is really unintuitive. i'm probably just a physics normie though.

2019-10-28 09:25:34 UTC  

usually we do permutations about a harmonic interval to evaluate the path intergral

2019-10-28 09:25:47 UTC  

we cant do the true intergral because its infinite

2019-10-28 09:25:52 UTC  

and save myself the headache that wil never pay off

2019-10-28 09:26:08 UTC  

to me it pays off because the purpose of life is to understand what i am, and the world i inhabit

2019-10-28 09:26:15 UTC  

at least for me

2019-10-28 09:26:29 UTC  

never lose that drive.

2019-10-28 09:26:30 UTC  

doesnt pay the bills though

2019-10-28 09:26:36 UTC  

yours isnt the end all either

2019-10-28 09:26:50 UTC  

yeah i recognize its my personal preference for how to live

2019-10-28 09:27:02 UTC  

its just a more complex model

2019-10-28 09:27:08 UTC  

very true

2019-10-28 09:27:13 UTC  

and not the real thing

2019-10-28 09:27:14 UTC  

i see what you mean

2019-10-28 09:27:25 UTC  

well yes, we can never prove we have the final model

2019-10-28 09:27:43 UTC  

i think we might be close honestly. QM is fantastically good the only flaw is its not background independent like GR

2019-10-28 09:27:49 UTC  

the final model is the universe itself.

2019-10-28 09:27:56 UTC  

Nothing we can invent can explain the real model, because it would be made up of parts of the real model

2019-10-28 09:28:01 UTC  

we need a model for QM where spacetime is emergent instead of baked in

2019-10-28 09:28:03 UTC  

whats M ?

2019-10-28 09:28:09 UTC  

you can't make it more simple without cutting corners and generalising.

2019-10-28 09:28:21 UTC  

the thing is QM is ridiculously simple

2019-10-28 09:28:32 UTC  

and it works everywhere but black holes

2019-10-28 09:28:36 UTC  

M for Mexican

2019-10-28 09:29:08 UTC  

To understand QM you need nothing more than basic linear algebra, basic calculus, and abstract algebra

2019-10-28 09:29:16 UTC  

yeah but i think qm is a general idea, it doesn't account for every single action at every point in time... i understand that sentence i just made can be broken apart easily though .lol

2019-10-28 09:29:18 UTC  

but theres always deeper layers

2019-10-28 09:29:38 UTC  

can you explain what you mean by that

2019-10-28 09:29:49 UTC  

it can explain almost everything, it just cant predict all outcomes

2019-10-28 09:30:17 UTC  

basically we need better resolution at smaller scales to really see what's happening. qm is predictive, but not an exact model of reality.

2019-10-28 09:30:23 UTC  

the biggest problem is QM treats time and space as absolute, when we know theyre not

2019-10-28 09:30:26 UTC  

theyre emergent
